Cool ARK GRiP Exhaust/HFC Added

First mod! Yay~~
Had these put on about two weeks ago. Lovely sound and gargle that I've been looking for since owning the vehicle for the past two years. Definitely enjoy riding more often than usual because of it. Low end sound is deep with slight drone but turning on the radio makes it unnoticeable. High end sounds amazing as well, yet has a slight rasp tone to it. maybe its just me.

Here are a few shots taken from my phone. And sorry...no HFC pics

Enjoy everyone.

Looks Awesome! What kind of HFC did you use? I didn't get HFC because I heard it adds drone and rasp.

I had berk HFC with the ark as well and it droned and rasped at certain rpms. I later switched to FI rhfc and it brought it back to what it sounds like without HFC...almost. Overall though I wouldn't recommend adding any additional exhaust mods to the ARK CBE system. the money spent and the compromise you make in sound for the performance gained are just not worth it in my opinion.

Yeah you're right. I'm fine with this setup as it is. Really makes me happier owning the G. Didnt really buy the exhaust for "performance" anyways lol

On a side note....my SES won't leave me alone =[
